        That must be some pretty serious explosion! Last year my EG group decided to make an embroidered patchwork Periodic Table for a challange entitled Chemistry. for silicon we decided to do a pair of bosums, and originally we were just going to use Barbie's. The arms, legs & head removed easily enough, but trying to cut into the body was sheer murder - or so she reported back, it was a right palaver and had us giggling to hear her tale of woe. In the end she took a mould of them and then filled it with silicone bath sealer, which we used instead.second inside row on the teal background to the left - look for the black lacy bra.

        There are lots of silly visual jokes like this all through the piece we had great fun doing it!
